The Tracy/Milroy/Balaton boys basketball
team won over Westbrook-Walnut Grove 49-38 at Tracy Tuesday
night. The win improved the Panthers season record to 2-9.

The Chargers got the first score of the
game and led 2-0 but that proved to be the last time they were
ahead in the game. By the end of the first period the score was
13-11 in favor of TMB and increased to 20-15 by the intermission.
At the end of the third period it was 31-25 in favor of the
Panthers.

The Panthers had too much strength under
the boards for the Chargers and, in the fourth quarter, when they
made their charge, bringing the score to 35-31 at one point and
to 40-36 at another, WWG had to play aggressive defense that sent
the Panthers to the free-throw line.

The Panther B-squad won 44-35. Spencer
Zwaschka had 13 points, followed by Taylor Rignell with 8.
